  1. Glad to hear you enjoyed this read! I have it on my shelves and I plan on reading it during the summer.

  2. J.T. Oldfield says

    I’ve been wanting to read this for a while. It sounds so good! I’m glad that you liked it.

  3. Glad you enjoyed this one, too! I also found it to be really suspenseful and entertaining — I read it in one (long) afternoon. I have to pick up The Art Of Racing In The Rain next!

  4. Never heard of this one! I have been seeing his other book everywhere! Great review!

  5. I have to admit I am very much not a fan of Joseph Conrad, but this books sounds really interesting.

    • Conrad is not my favorite writer either. I just happened to remember Livingstone from Heart of Darkness, which I read ages ago and don’t think I quite finished. I cannot stand his dialogue or writing style, honestly. Stein on the other hand is fantastic.

  6. I am a believer in where Stein can take you, after having read The Art of Racing in the Rain. I didn’t like how hard it made me cry but I think that is my own personal problem (ha!). I don’t mind wandering timelines too much…to much of a linear story can get stale and can be forgettable. I need to make an effort to get to this one!

  7. Wow, I’ve never heard of this book before but it sounds fantastic! I love books set in the northern wilderness (must be because I’m from Canada!).

  8. Glad to see you liked this one, Serena. I enjoyed it too, although I didn’t love it as I did Racing in the Rain. I’m eager to read more books by Stein.

    • I’d be happy to read more Stein. I count him among one of my favorites. I think dog lovers have a particular connection with Racing.

    I have been following all the reviews on this one, cos I did like The Art, but I got so sad by it

  10. Heart of Darkness!! EEK!!! Well, I won’t hold that against the book, since it sounds really good.

  11. I totally loved this one…and had no complaints whatsoever. Now I need to read Racing in the Rain! Your review was excellent and fun to read!

  12. This book sounds wonderful, muddled time line and all.

    • I was really being picky about that…Honestly it only bothered me for a bit, but not enough to disrupt my reading and enjoyment.
